Reason to Visit : Opened on May 10, 1972, the San Diego Wild Animal Park is unique as zoo's go. It is a zoo where the animals roam in entire herds and flocks in a 2,100 acre preserve.

It is a zoo where the people are contained (caged if you will) and the animals run free in surroundings much like their native homelands. A quiet monorail, pathways and animal shows enable visitors to travel among the animals in their habitat and view many species of exotic plants.
